Hawthorne Happenings
News for the City of Good
Neighbors from an Old Guy
named Norb Huber
HAWTHORNE HOME TOWN
PANCAKE BREAKFAST
Mark your calendars. Tell your cell
phone to send you a reminder. Make a
point to get out of bed early and come
on over to the Hawthorne Museum on
St. Patrick’s Day morning, Saturday, March 17
between the hours of 8 a.m. and 11 a.m. The
Hawthorne Historical Society will be holding
our 4th Annual Hawthorne Home Town Pancake
Breakfast. How much better can it get than hot
cakes, bacon, sausage, orange juice and coffee?
Bring your friends and family. The price is
right, $5 is all that you pay. After having a
great breakfast you can enjoy all of those green
cold ones in celebration of our Irish heritage.
I was wondering the other day why Germans
don’t have a holiday designated in America to
celebrate their lineage. Cinco de Mayo is for
Mexican culture, African-Americans have MLKJ
Day, there is a Chinese New Year, but I guess
the closest thing we have for Germans is the
entire month of October being a “fest”. I have
to admit that cold ones for a month is pretty
good. So there, I don’t feel so left out. My
name, Norbert Huber is pretty Germanic. The
German pronunciation of Huber is “Uber”. Just
don’t call me if you need a ride, I’m sure you
can understand why, especially if it’s October.
THE “STATE OF THE CITY”
LUNCHEON
Mayor Alex Vargas promises to keep his
speech shorter than President Trump when
he delivers his annual “State of the City”
address on Wednesday, March 21st over at the
Memorial Center. Tickets to the luncheon are
$50 per person and can be obtained by calling
the Chamber of Commerce office.
FLAME THROWERS AND THE HEAVY
Every wild and crazy idea that pops into
Elon’s head seems to be working these days.
His Boring Company just threw a flame thrower
out for sale and literally thousands of Elon’s
followers plunked down $500 to purchase the
toy. Just this week, the largest payload carrying
rocket that SpaceX has ever launched was
shot successfully into orbit. You see as many
electric driven Teslas traveling on Rosecrans
headed towards Manhattan Beach these days
as you do gas guzzling SUV’s. I really don’t
know how Elon can keep up with the pace of
work that he has set out for himself and his
companies. I thought I was super busy, but
he seems like a 24/7 guy that doesn’t need
to sleep. He expects his employees to meet
deadlines that would be impossible for any other
company to meet. What SpaceX, Tesla, the
Boring Company and Elon are doing are simply
amazing and to think all of this has
their roots in Hawthorne should
bring pride to any Hawthorne
resident. The dilapidated, corrupt,
scandal laden city known for its
shutter mall is history. We are
the new Hawthorne, booming
with hotels, restaurants, tunnels,
new businesses, and a NFL
stadium next door. No longer are
we embarrassed to tell others we are from
Hawthorne. Now, we can say it with pride,
“We live in Hawthorne”. Let them be jealous.
Let the envy sink in. We are survivors and
we are doing just fine, thank you!
HAWTHORNE RELAY FOR LIFE
The event has been cancelled for this year.
Participants are encouraged to attend similar
events in our neighboring cities.
THANK GOD
St. Paul begins his letter to the Philippians
with “I thank my God every time I remember
you”. I could start my weekly column with
the same salutation. I thank my God that
all eight of you read my writings. I thank
God that I have had the opportunity to share
God’s love with you folks. (Two more closet
readers came clean over at the Museum the
other day and revealed that they not only go
out of their way to obtain a hard copy of this
stuff, but they actually take the time to read
and digest these morsels of food for thought
and on top of that they told me that they love
what I write.) That brings tears of joy to my
eyes. To think that my humble happenings is
touching people in a positive way is enough for
me to continue to ramble on. I’m convinced
that it is no longer I who write and live but
Christ who lives inside of me. God loves
you whether you stood and clapped for the
SOTU, sat on your hands, or boycotted the
entire 100 minute speech. God loves you if
you think our president used Russia to win the
election or his opponent paid for Russian lies
to spy on him. God loves you even if you
are a Patriot fan, although Doug Peterson, the
Eagles coach, gave all glory to Jesus Christ in
front of millions of people after upsetting the
defending champs. It is true, God loves you no
matter what your color, gender, creed or type
of beer you enjoy drinking. Not one of us is
perfect, not one of us can save ourselves. We
all are doomed to die if it weren’t for God’s
grace in Christ Jesus. I thank God knowing
that you too want to pass God’s love on to
others. True joy comes from loving each other,
loving our community, and loving those who
are not like us. Okay, okay, that’s enough of
the loby duby stuff. Now just show a little
love to yourself and knock down, savor, sip or
just plain consume a cold one. All this lovin’
makes me thirsty. I thank God for cold ones. •
